Fun way to learn about York

Published on Mar, 2025

This is a fun and entertaining way to see the sites of York while learning a little bit of its gruesome and spooky history. The bus was easy to find and on time. Our hosts were excellent and made the whole experience great for everyone

Great tour

Published on Mar, 2025

Really enjoyed this ghost tour, great way to learn about some of Yorks dark side whilst also keeping it fun. Liked the effect of the old bus, and tour guid was amazing at keeping you interested and on your toes, very entertaining and clearly enjoyed being there.

Best ghost tour!

Published on Mar, 2025

Amazing tour. Great laugh. Phil is a 10/10 tour guide. Learnt so much and got a couple scares. Will definitely recommend it to anyone planning on going.

You shouldn’t laugh at Ghosts!

Fab experience! Really enjoyed the mix of history and fun! Would recommend to anyone who wants to experience the spooky side of York! Thanks to Phil Graves and Bob!

Frank and Bob’s great entertainment

Published on Mar, 2025

Absolutely fab … Bob and Frank are brilliant entertainment from start to finish… stories were great but it was just so much fun, don’t miss this! Also was good to do this time of year when getting dusk by the time you’re in the trip, more atmospheric
